It's Time To Stop Shoppin' Around - Smokey Robinson

You gave me space

Girl, you gave me air

You let me run and rip

And when I’m done my trip

You’ve been waiting right here

You gave me leeway, you gave me my way

Now you’re acting like you’re bout to give me the highway

I better straighten up

It’s time to stop shopping around

It’s time to stop Duking of Earl

It’s time to stop Jimmy Macking

And get myself back in

Your arms again

I’ve been a rover

Girl, I’ve been a mover

You just swallowed your pride

And stood on the side

And let me maneuver

You gave me freedom, you gave me rope

I haven’t already hung myself, I hope

I better straighten up

At first it was nice

Taking mama’s advice

And play the game of pick-and-choose

But along came you

And that’s when I knew

I found that woman that I don’t want to lose

My way was a dream

Girl, your way is real

You had to shake me up

Just to wake me up

Show me how I feel

I showed you my way, you showed me your way

Now you acting like you’re bout to show me the doorway

I better straighten up
